France. — The Moniteur of Sunday publishes a royal 

 ordinance, authorising the Minister of Finance to com- 

 plete a loan of 200 millions of francs in Three per Cent. 

 Stock by public tender, and in sealed offers, the loan to 

 be adjudicated to the parties who offer the most favour- 

 able terms above the minimum to be fixed by the 

 Minister. The stock will bear interest from the 22d 

 December. In execution of this ordinance, the Moniteur 

 publishes a notice from the Minister of Finance, stating, 

 that he will proceed on Monday, the 9th December, at 

 his office, to the public sale and adjudication of the 

 above loan of 200 millions in the usual form for competi- 

 tion. It is stated that four parties propose bidding, 

 viz., De Rothschild Brothers, Baring Brothers (in con- 

 junction with the Receivers-general), Durand and Co., 

 and Charles Laffitte, Blount, and Co. The supposition 

 that only 200,000,000 (8,000,000/. sterling) will be re- 

 quired, and that the minimum reserved or upset price 

 will be high, has induced, instead of a depression, a rise 

 in the price of stock — a rare, and perhaps unprecedented 

 result of the expected creation of a new debt to the ex- 

 tent of 8,000,000/. sterling. On this point we may 

 remark that the Dibats considers the present circum- 

 stances of the country to be so favourable that it anti- 

 cipates French Three per Cents, at 90 as soon as this 

 financial operation is determined. The Moniteur also 

 publishes a royal ordinance for the trial of the system of 

 atmospheric railways between the Nanterre station of 

 the Paris and St. Germain railway, and the Plateau 

 of St. Germain, and approving of the convention 

 for that purpose entered into between the Minister 

 of Public Works and the St. Germain company. — 

 The re-organisation of the Polytechnic School has 

 commenced in Paris. — On Thursday the members of 

 the Conseil de Perfectionnement, and the professors and 

 officers attached to the school, waited in a body on Gen. 

 Boileau, who has quitted the command of the establish- 

 ment, to pay him a farewell visit. In the course of the 

 afternoon the General left the school, and the new com- 

 mander, General Rostolan, was installed in his place. — 

 The Due d'Aumale left Paris for Naples on the 12th 

 inst., accompanied by the Prince de Joinville. They 

 embark on the 16th, at Toulon, on board the Gomer for 

 Naples. They expect to arrive at Naples on the 20th, 

 and on the 25th, the anniversary of Louii-Philippe's 

 marriage, the Due d'Aumale will be married to the Prin- 

 cess of Salerno. The Prince and the young Princess 

 will leave Naples on the 1st of December, on their way 

 back to France. — In the absence of news of a more 

 stirring nature, two of the papers devote several columns 

 to an examination of the question of the communication 

 with the East by way of Suez, suggested by a letter from 

 Mr. Waghorn to the Pacha. In considering whether a 

 canal or railroad would be preferable, the Ministerial 

 Debats concludes in favour of a canal, which it hopes 

 would restore much of the trade of the East to Marseilles, 

 as also to Trieste, Genoa, and Venice. It strongly urges 

 the Pacha to undertake the work at his own expense ; 

 and says that while the revenue to be derived from 

 it would amply repay him for the cost, the work 

 would confer honour upon him for ages to come. 

 M. Thiers's organ, the Constitutionnel, merely supposes 

 that England has some selfish motive in proposing 

 a railway.— The difference which had arisen between 

 Baron Seguier and the members of the Paris bar, who 

 had refused to plead in the chamber of the Royal Court, 

 of which he is the president, has been satisfactorily 

 arranged. On the 4 th, the day on which the courti were 



' solemnly re-opened, when the newly-elected members of 

 the council of the advocates, headed by their chairman, 

 j M. Chaix d'Est Ange, presented themselves to take the 

 oath, Baron Seguier rose, and addressed them in terms 

 expressive of his esteem for their character, and confi- 

 dence in their talent, which were considered by the bar 

 as an ample satisfaction. The members of the council 

 accordingly met after the sitting, and unanimously agreed 

 to resume the exercise of their profession in the first 

 chamber of the Royal Court. — M. de Nyon, the French 

 Consul-General at Tangier*, arrived at Toulon on the 

 4th, from Morocco. The treaty with France has been 

 ratified by the Emperor of Morocco, and the Dtbats 

 gives the details of the interview between the Duke of 

 Giucksberg and the Pacha of Larache upon the occasion. 

 The same paper states that Abd-el-Kader has taken 

 refuge near Miliana, a part of the country where the 

 jurisdiction of the Emperor of Morocco is not much 

 respected. The National mentions that the French 

 Government, enlightened by the information received as 

 to the causes which led to the late war with Morocco, are 

 about to appoint a special agent to reside with the Emperor 

 of Morocco, and to remain in constant communication with 

 him. — The Italians residing at Paris intend to have a medal 

 struck and a funeral service celebrated for the brothers 

 Bandiera and the other martyrs of the Italian cause exe- 

 cuted in the kingdom of Naples and in the Papal States. 

 M. Gallotti, well known for the part he took in the events 

 of Naples, in 1821 and 1828, presented himself a few 

 days ago, with some of his countrymen, in different 

 churches of Paris to order that service. The clergy, 

 however, declined to acquiesce in their request. The 

 funds intended for that object will accordingly be ap- 

 plied to complete the subscription to the medal which 

 the Italian Liberals, without any distinction of party, 

 have determined to devote to the memory of those vic- 

 tims A German Journal states, that a French company 



is about to be formed for establishing a line of steam- 

 boats between Havre andTonningen, a port in Denmark, 

 for the purpose of bringing into France supplies of 

 cattie from Jutland and Schleswig. Tnis undertaking is 

 expected to be very beneficial to the railroad between 

 Flensburg and Tonningen. — The Papers announce the 

 death, at Paris, of Madame Charlotte de Grouchy, 

 widow of the celebrated Cabanis, at 76 years of age. 

 This lady, distinguished for her amiable qualities, lived 

 in the society of the most remarkable philosophers of 

 the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 10 Ui centu- 

 ries. She was not less esteemed for her wit and varied 

 information than lor the charm and elegance of her con- 

 versation, her kind disposition, and her benevolence. 

 Madame Cabanis was sister to Marshal Grouchy, and 

 sister-in-law to the celebrated Condorcet. — It is an- 

 nounced in London that a Life of Sir Hudson Lowe, by 

 his son, is on the point of making its appearance. 

 Apropos to this announcement, the Courrier Francais 

 states that " Geu. Montholon has taken the opportunity 

 of his long confinement in the Castle of Ham to arrange 

 the various documents which he brought from St. Helena. 

 It is probable that the work of M. de Montholon will 

 rectify many erroneous statements which have been 

 published and received as authentic relative to the six 

 years' residence of Napoleon at St. Helena." — We 

 noticed in our last the remarkable fact that 10 communes 

 in the department of the Vau had embraced Protestantism. 

 The Paris Papers of this week state that while members 

 of the Oxford School are embracing Catholicism, the 

 whole population of the commune of Villefavard, in the 

 department of La Haute Vienne, containing 600 souls, 

 with the priest of the parish, and the Mayor at its head, 

 have just joined the Protestant Church. It appears that 

 the Prefect ot the department had sometime ago opposed 

 the establishment of Protestant worship at Villefavard; 

 but the Minister of Justice, in answer to the representa- 

 tions made to him on the subject, authorised the esta- 

 blishment of a Protestant chapel in the commune ; and 

 on the 7th July last, divine worship according to Protest- 

 ant forms was solemnly begun in that place, in the 

 presence of the municipal authorities. A similar con- 

 version begins to manifest itself in the environs of 

 Matha, in the department of La Charte Inferieure, and 

 in 25 of the surrounding parishes. 



Spain. — We have accounts from Madrid to the 5th 

 inst. It was rumoured thatM. Martinez de la Rosa had 

 received a note from Mr. Bulwer announcing that 

 General Espartero, who was said to have been indis- 

 posed, had disappeared from London, and that the 

 British Government was not apprised of the direction he 

 had taken. This report had caused considerable sensa- 

 tion, and the Government had immediately forwarded 

 orders to the authorities on the land frontiers and along 

 the coast to take measures to defeat any attempt at 

 invasion likfciy to be made by the ex-Regent. It appears 

 however, that Espartero is still in London, and tbat he 

 has never been absent from it for 24 hours since his 

 first arrival as an exile. The discussion in the Chamber 

 of Deputies on the address was proceeding, but as the 

 paragraph in favour of the constitutional reform has 

 been adopted, the debates offer no striking interest. The 

 only fact of importance is the declaration made by 

 M. Mon, the Minister of Finance, that the payment of 

 the December dividends was secure. The report also of 

 the committee of the Chamber, on the project of consti- 

 tutional reform, has been presented. It is a very lengthy 

 document, but the only changes which it makes in 

 the Government plan are those which we have already 

 announced, namely, with regard to the prevention 

 of the present or any future Sovereign of Spain 

 from contracting marriage with any member ex- 

 cluded from the succession to the throne. The
